Bet 24 adds to pro team

Wednesday, 25 January 2012

There has been plenty of upheaval in the pro ranks at online poker sites in recent months, but one site that has bucked the trend by adding rather than dropping players is Bet24, which has just seven new names to its pro team.

”We are very happy and excited to have signed up some of Europe’s most high qualified players” says Bet24's poker manager Lars Kollind. ”It is amazing to have seven new poker profiles in our team and to be able to participate in their development as poker players and also build andstrengthen Bet24 as a brand.”

Bet24 confirmed that they will be adding to their 13-player pro team in the near future with players from Canada, the UK and Australia next on their shopping list.

”It feels like a really good start on the new year to become a part of Team Bet24” says Stefan Mattsson, now planning his tournament schedule for this year.
